Fonts are everything, and let's not lie, we all judge a book by its cover.

So, here's a list of a few fonts that I use.  You can download these from font sites. I use dafont.com, but there are plenty of other free download sites such as 1001freefonts.com

So you got a list of fonts

So you got a list of fonts. Now, where to download them to.

I use Phonto. In my opinion it's an amazing app. You can do a lot of pretty cool things on it.

Now this is how you download a font and get it to Phonto.

For this example I'm downloading the Shorelines Script font from Dafont.

1. Open up your web browser (I'm on Safari) and type in the search bar: dafont.com

2. Find your font

3. Click the Download button beside it.

5. Below it should say Open in "Phonto". If yours doesn't say that, click the More... option and it should show up as an option to open it in Phonto.

6. Press Open in "Phonto", and then you should be redirected to the Phonto app.

7. Your screen should now look like this. Click Install. Once you click Install, the blue button should change to orange. Once it does that you can exit.

And now you have your font! If you don't know where your font is, load up a random image on Phonto, click to add text then click My Fonts, and your font should be there (in alphabetical order)
